The Roar restricted the ACT Meteors to 6-111 on a flat West Park wicket yesterday afternoon, setting up its second win of the Twenty20 season.

``We have played that many close games this season, I'm sick of it,'' Selby joked after the game.

``I'm really proud of our bowlers, all six of them were fantastic.

``We had a plan to defend on that ground and they carried it out.

``To keep a good side like the ACT to about 110 is a great effort.''

Batting first, the Roar looked like letting its first home game of the season slip away, setting the Meteors a modest total of 116 for victory.

With Kris Britt (42 off 43 balls) in fine touch, the Meteors looked like they were cruising to victory at 3-100 after the 17th over.

However, when Britt skied a shot, caught brilliantly by wicketkeeper Tayla Kafoa at third man, panic began to set in for the visitors.

A brilliant piece of fielding from Katelyn Fryett saw Kate Owen run out for 10 on the first ball of the 18th over and when Kate Watford was caught short of her crease, attempting a risky single on the second ball of the last over, the game was the Roar's for the keeping.

Captain Veronica Pyke was the most economical of the Roar's bowlers, finishing with 1-14 off her four overs, while Anita Silva was the only multiple wicket taker for the home team, finishing with two.

Erin Burns dug in for the Roar with the bat.

The right-hander clearly enjoyed the short boundaries at West Park, with her innings of 49 off 46 balls including five fours and a six.

Emma Thompson (16 runs) and Belinda Page (13) both made starts for the Roar but the hosts will need a more even spread of contributors if it is to be competitive in today's one-day game against the Meteors.

Today's game starts at 10am at West Park, with another Twenty20 being played tomorrow from 9.30am.
